You can't be making such blanket statements. There are a lot of great wines. Some of the best syrah I've ever had is from BC, and there are plenty of other great wines.

My response to this would be drink more Syrah from Northern Rhone, because there is no producer in Canada that is producing Syrah anywhere near the quality (find me someone trying to claim they are; they cant the soil and climate are too different) . You can say it's subjective, but we both know it's not. I made one exception, Riesling, because their are some good expressions in cold weather.

If you dont believe me go find a bottle of this Chave (https://www.klwines.com/products/details/2010088) and drink them side-by-side.
